Chapter 144 The Essence of the Restricted Area~
The days passed quickly, and it was several days in a blink of an eye.
The little wizards tried their best to find clues about the secret room, and even the number of people reading books in the library increased.
However, the Chamber of Secrets is really hidden. There are only a few out-of-the-way books in the library with such a few words, and it makes me even more confused when I find it.
Ted even felt that if the old senior Tom hadn't opened the secret room once when he was in school, resulting in the death of a myrtle, I am afraid that no one would know about the secret room by now.
Originally, the story of the secret room had been circulating within the Gunter family. Later, the mentally ill members of the Gunter family intermarried and even stopped going to school, so almost no one knew about it.
I don't know where Voldemort learned this secret from.
I couldn't find it in the book, so naturally a curious little wizard asked the professors.
Someone asked Professor Spencer of Magic.
However, this ghost professor is fishing according to the script every day, and doesn't care about your questions at all, and he doesn't even remember the names of a few students.
In the original book, Hermione asked the question. He still remembered the name of Xueba, so he answered the question.
But right now, the unknown student's question has not been answered at all.
"I think you should pay more attention to the confirmed history in the books, rather than the gossip in the rumors. This student, sit down~"
However, if one person fails, there is another person. The curiosity of the little wizards will not be so easily quenched.
A third-year Gryffindor asked Professor Flitwick this question.
Professor Flitwick is still very talkative, and finally talked about the rumors.
Because the secret room was opened more than fifty years ago, there are still some rumors that have been passed down.
It's useless. All the teachers and students in the school knew the rumors about the secret room in the morning.
"Hey, have you heard? Slytherin put a very dangerous curse in the Chamber of Secrets, asking the successor to clear the school of Muggle wizards!"
"How did I hear that even half-blood wizards will be killed together!"
"Ah! I heard that all wizards who refuse to surrender will be killed, and their souls will be enslaved after death!"
"No, I heard that the future generations are going to unify the magic world and become the emperor of black magic!"
Rumors started to iterate overnight. Of course, it is because of people who are interested in fueling the flames.
Ted: That's right, it's me who is just a kid~
Ted released some ambiguous news, and led the little wizards to think in a more evil direction, spreading rumors that were extremely outrageous at first sight.
Ted's purpose is simple.
The first is to deal with rumors with rumors.
If the rumor of the one-shot thimble is not brought out, the news about the secret room will definitely be recognized by most people.
This is not good. It's better to let everyone treat it as a joke at the moment, so as not to panic.
And if the basilisk continues to commit crimes later, these exaggerated rumors will create pressure on the Slytherin students.
At that time, the three colleges must join forces to teach the Snake Academy a lesson~
"Ding~ Complete the hidden mission [We Media (White)], reward 120 experience."
The system thinks that Ted is already a mature self-media person~
The friends are also actively discussing this outrageous rumor.
Jerry: "If that heir wanted to purify the school, he wouldn't attack me, would he?"
He pinched his two round ears: Shushu is so cute, how can we get rid of Shushu~
Neville also looked blank: "Shouldn't he also eliminate wizards with bad grades? I've worked hard!"
Harry and Hermione rolled their eyes.
Ted comforted: "Don't worry. It won't happen."
"Pure blood is not acceptable. After all, pure blood does not mean that the offspring will be outstanding. Do you think Malfoy, who talks about blood all day long, can compare with Hermione's performance?"
"If it is cleared up like this, then in the end, there will only be that heir left."
Having said that, the magic world is indeed an extremely elite-led society.
A very small number of elites push the entire magic world forward, and others make up the numbers.
What about the Dark Lord and the White Devil, the Big Four or something.
The greatest contribution of ordinary wizards to the magic world is to pass on the family line.
Just such a task, none of them can complete it. If you don't have children, you often play yourself to death. So that the number of wizards is getting smaller and smaller.
Think about what contribution you have made to mankind? It probably enriches the diversity of human beings~
…
The enthusiasm of the students and friends for the Chamber of Secrets far exceeded Ted's imagination.
Ted has to study and practice magic every day, ponder alchemy and strange object production, and help the Weasley twins figure out the research direction and overcome difficulties. Recently, inspiration came to plan to develop a new "potion".
Besides, there is such a big basilisk inside, how dangerous it is. Whoever wants to study should study.
But my friends don’t see it that way.
This is simply the biggest hot spot of the year, how can this be let go?
Even if Ted lacked interest, they also enjoyed the discussion. Hermione also tries to find clues in books.
But Ted's words gave them another idea.
Harry proposed: "They said, if Slytherin were to choose an heir, who would it be? It couldn't be me?!"
Hermione closed the book: "Should be a Slytherin student too?"
Jerry poked Ron who was in a daze: "Hey, who in your pure-blood family has relatives with Slytherin?!"
He got to the point with this question.
Heir! If there is a blood relationship, then of course they didn't run away.
Ron rolled his eyes: "There are so many pure-blood families, and they have intermarried with each other for thousands of years, and they all have relatives. If that's the case, I, Neville, and Harry are all related to Slytherin!"
Ron pouted: "I have relatives with Malfoy!"
Malfoy!
right! Malfoy!
Although Ted just despised Malfoy's grades, when it comes to Slytherin students, Harry and the others first think of Malfoy.
Harry had an expression of only one truth: "Do you think Malfoy is the heir?"
Neville: "He has this motive!"
Jerry: "He's bad enough!"
"We have to try him!"
My friends think that Malfoy is the most suspicious, even if it's not him, he must know something!
Ted almost laughed when he heard it, and Harry and the others only saw students of the same grade. Aren't those more outstanding senior students more suspicious?
But let them make a fuss, and save the time to really find the secret room. Malfoy was much safer than the Basilisk.
Originally, Ted thought he would be free for a while, but unexpectedly, his friends found him a job.
Harry said: "I once saw a potion that can completely transform into another person. We can become Malfoy's followers to make a routine!"
Ron and Neville looked at her: I don't read much, don't lie to me
Jerry quickly asked, "What potion?"
"It's called Polyjuice Potion."
"How to make it?"
"…have no idea!"
Jerry looked helpless: I don't know what are you excited about?
Hermione said: "I know this potion, I remember it was recorded in a book."
"What book? I'll find it!" Jerry was very positive.
He is really afraid that the heir to the secret room will clear him out. Becoming a wizard is no longer his business alone. The whole family will benefit from it, and they must not be cleared.
Hermione looked at Ted: ""Power Potion", the book seems to be in the restricted area..."
Everyone looked at Ted.
Given the relationship between Ted and Lockhart, isn't it easy to get an IOU from the restricted section?
Ted raised his hand and surrendered: "Okay, I can help you get the books, but there is no way to cook them. That thing will take a month to cook. I have a very important experiment recently, so let Hermione cook it." .”
He pressed Hermione who was about to refute: "Believe in yourself, you can do it."
…
At night, the bright moonlight shines into the library through the windows, making it silvery white.
Ted, who was in an invisible state, bypassed several well-known magic traps, avoided the warning bronze statue that screamed loudly when touched, and came to the restricted area.
Of course he wouldn't go to Lockhart for a loan slip.
There are so many books in the restricted section, how many books can I borrow?
Although Lockhart certainly didn't care, it would be troublesome to let other professors—mainly Dumbledore and Professor McGonagall—know.
As a student of Hogwarts, isn't it only right and proper to peek in the restricted area in the middle of the night?
Son stealing Lao Tzu is not stealing, but student stealing books can be called stealing? That's a stolen book~
Moreover, Ted still has a task on him—【Forbidden books are the essence of the library (red)】.
Now that he has mastered the invisibility technique, and with the "detection magic", which can greatly avoid the harm caused by those dangerous magic tomes, Ted finally decided to attack the restricted area!
Thanks for the 100-point rewards from book friends "Packing medicine is justice", "Heart has fallen asleep", "Aimen-Alysia" and "Witness the power of salted fish"!
Thanks a few book friends~
